Whoo-oh-!
The arrows of wind forged by the magician who reached the level of a 7th circle superman loftily spew their own spirits.
The moment when Russell let go of the string of magical power he was pulling.
Wedge love liquid To-do-du-du-!
The literal bombing began.
A single blow is an arrow of wind that has the power to shatter and pierce rocks as well as tall trees.
Undead made up of corpses that had already rotted away could not survive.
The blown shock bolts fill the village and pierce the heads of the wandering dead.
Grrreug puheuk.
Dalgrauk pug-.
The undead that were hit directly fell like dominoes in a row.
One hit kill.
It happened before I even realized what was going on, let alone rebelled.
After arranging the undead the size of a village in an instant, Russell slowly moved on.
“….”
Though he was cautious, he looked around the village, revealing his uncomfortable expression without hiding it.
There was little chance of that, but it was to see if there were any surviving undead.
Basrak-.
A dry twig was stepped on and broken by his shoe, and finally, after checking all over town, Russell opened his mouth.
“It is over.”
[You have completed the mission.]
[We will give you 2x Lesser Manastone (Edible) as a reward.]
I hear a notification.
“okay. Everyone should have slept comfortably. number…?!”
Muyaho stopped talking and shook his head.
Then, like a wolf, he thrust his mouth forward and growled, exposing his sharp fangs.
Grrrrr-.
“Why are you like that? Muyaho.”
“cock. There is another corpse smell.”
“Are there any more?”
It was only a few minutes ago that all the undead in this village were defeated.
Therefore, it is also natural that the smell of the dead still remains here.
However, the corpse smell that Muyaho was talking about didn’t seem to be that.
‘Could it be another village?’
just as expected. Muyaho continued to speak while glaring in one direction.
“At first, I thought the smell from this place was everything. When I came here, I knew for sure. There are other corpses besides this one.”
At Muyaho’s words, Russell hardened his face and looked away. I checked the direction Muyaho was looking at and opened it up.
‘In that direction…?!’
It was in the direction of a small barony nearby.
.
.
Baron (male).
It refers to the nobles belonging to the lowest rank among the gonghu baekja male (公侯伯子男).
No, strictly speaking, it should be somewhere between nobles and commoners.
Of course, only the barons in large cities or near the capital maintained the prestige appropriate for aristocrats.
The barons in the outskirts or small towns in the provinces were actually closer to the village chiefs than nobles.
However, what was certain was that the Barony was managed by the state and boasted the largest scale among the nearby villages, whether it was a village or not.
Perhaps Baron Artran, located here, is no different.
Pad Pavabat-.
After jumping over a low mountain, a village, which must have been a baron’s territory, appears at the bottom of the mountain.
It was a fairly large village that could be called a village several times the size of the lumberjack village that was subjugated earlier.
The number of young people living there must have been around 1,000.
but.
uh uh uh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
All those territories have long since turned into undead.
Facing the stench and death-infested territory, Muyaho frowned.
“As expected…”
Russell’s expression was more serious than that.
‘No matter how large the scale of a village, this kind of thing happened even in the barony under the management of the government?’
The cultists were not welcome anywhere on the continent. That’s why what they plan and execute is usually very secretive.
Even if mass production of undead was mass-produced, it was all about raiding slash-and-burn villages in the mountains or villages that would not be strange even if they disappeared.
However, the magic of those cultists reached the Baron’s territory.
‘After the emperor was bedridden, the war over the succession to the throne became serious, but that doesn’t mean he tolerated the cultists.’
As long as you don’t have the confidence to deal with it or tolerate it
even after doing something so boldly.
‘In other words, the background that can cover this incident is behind the cultist who committed this incident.’
It wasn’t impossible at all.
Actually, something similar happened in Endymion Kingdom.
What happened was caused by a cultist who was behind Archduke Bismarck, who was now executed as a traitor.
Perhaps this is what the greater darkness the dying cultist was talking about meant.
‘Someone of the highest ranks in the empire joined hands with a cultist.’
It is unknown whether it is the emperor or one of the princes in a power struggle.
Maybe it was a completely different person who wasn’t all of them.
‘I’ll have to report it to my country first.’
Thinking so, Russell filmed the scene using image frame magic, and the mission came to mind.
[Mission-II]
The Baron’s Darkness.
It has been a long time since all the territories of Baron Atran became undead.
Eliminate them and uncover the secrets of the Barondom.
[Reward]
Intermediate Magic Stone (Edible) x2
‘It’s a hidden secret.’
Russell’s eyes trembled. If you burn the entire territory with large-scale flame-type magic, you will be able to subdue them without difficulty.
However, if that happened, there was a strong possibility that the secret of the territory would also disappear into ashes.
“Like in the village a little while ago, I think we need to organize things first.”
Russell threw himself toward the bottom of the hill, transforming the form of the magical power he had raised.
Parbat-.
.
.
Just-.
His fingers snapped and sparks flew like flint.
Flash with him!
Bright red magic light shines and red lightning begins to scatter in multiple directions.
A fire that spreads out using lightning as a fuse. A magical red thunderbolt created by exquisitely combining thunder and fire attribute mana.
It was a piece of red mine made by applying it.
Pajit hwareuk-.
As the lightning bolts spread out and ran through the bodies of the five undead, small flames were transferred.
The sparks that started from that spread out in all directions like electricity causing an electric shock.
Roaring-!
The flames instantly covered the bodies of the surrounding undead and consumed them.
Goo thump.
Greok kung kung-.
Russell lightly scanned the nearby walls as he confirmed that the charred undead were falling away.
‘Runes written backwards…’
This wasn’t the first time, it was several times already. On top of that, this strange flow of magical power flowing along the surface of the earth.
According to the runes written in reverse of this flow—
It was then.
Muyaho, who was randomly punching and kicking from a little distance away, came to his side.
“Kyahahahaha!”
Two-bang!
It was just a punch, but there was a roar as if a siege weapon had been launched.
Even at a glance, you can see that the space is dissolving and the air is exploding from the tip of the fist.
However, the aftermath does not reach the surroundings at all.
‘Perhaps Muyaho has his own way of concentrating all his strength into one point the moment he reaches the target.’
If he was hit directly by a fist like that, even the 5th circle mage’s shield would be nothing more than glass.
It was too much power to deal with low-level undead. But what if that relieves stress?
‘I’m not the kind of person who would get tired of moving that much.’
Bang Kwajik!
Muyaho, who had grabbed the skulls of two skeletons and smashed them with all his might, asked Russell.
“okay. cock. Did you find out anything?”
It was while dripping bone meal through his fingers.
“yes.”
At Muyaho’s question, Russell nodded and added.
“Signs of unnatural magic flowing through this village, and runes written backwards everywhere. This is a magic circle.”
As he said, a strange magic circle of some kind was installed throughout the Baron’s territory.
“A magic circle?”
“yes. Concentrating the power of the undead and supplying it to someone… that kind of magic circle.”
Russell added a comment to help explain.
“As you look around the village, you must have seen the undead that didn’t fall at Muyaho’s hands a few times, lying on the floor.”
“Mum. I’ve seen quite a few.”
“Perhaps they have already been sucked out of all the fraud and envy.”
“That means—.”
“That place is the center of the magic circle. Perhaps there is an entity in the center that is capturing energy from the undead.”
Following Russell’s finger, Muyaho turned his head.
“That’s…”
What you see along the direction your fingertips are pointing at is the steeple with a bell tower located in the center of the village.
Of course, it was a very small scale compared to the ones in the big cities.
Perhaps beneath it is the official residence of the lord.
‘Something in the lord’s residence…’
Muyaho tapped Russell on the shoulder. growled with a ferocious face.
“What are you doing male? If you find out, you should go and destroy it.”
“yes…!?”
It was then.
The sign of the magical power that flowed along the surface was strangely distorted. It’s a clear change that Russell and even Muyaho can feel.
“What is this? cock.”
Muyaho’s eyes widened at the sudden change in the flow of magic power, and Russell glared in the direction of the spire and said.
“The center of Jin is shifting.”
“Are you moving?”
“yes. As if they were coming towards us…”
After a while, the two undead who appeared in front of the two who were ready for battle were completely different from before.
Even at a glance, Muyaho roared wildly at the unusual presence that set him apart from the other undead.
“Kyahaha. this is won Judging by the fact that he was covered in scrap metal, he was definitely! These guys seem to have a taste for beating. cock!”
“…death…death…
supply…level…degradation…”
“…invasion…person.”
“kill.”
Vicious red eyes spilled out of the pitch-black visor.
Three specter knights clad in swords covered in deceit and armor stained with poison.
A by-product for creating Doom Knights who have reached the level of superhumans.
The Death Knight was right there.
* * *
Obscured by gloomy clouds.
Even if it wasn’t so, it was above the sky so far away that the criminal’s eyes could not even confirm it.
A handsome man with a pale expression was looking down from above the sky.
“Somehow, I felt a wave of familiar magic not far away…”
Wedge-!
The man’s clothes and black hair were blowing wildly in the high-altitude blizzard.
Not paying any heed to him, the man carefully opened his mouth.
“I will see you again. Little Dragon Lord.”
dragon-swallowed wizard
